Looks real cool. That Caddy engine should be a tire shredder.

Just a bit more on the car. I tried to update a lot of stuff on the car while trying to keep it stock looking. I am retaining all the molding on the outside of the cat. They have been redone. This is something that few if anyone does as most people remove the center body moolding. The hood is a 64 chevelle hood with a set of 66 chevelle scoops on it. The interior is stock door panels with new trans am seats cut down to make them low backs. Seat,dash pad,kickpanels,ect are all in red leather. I put a set of tpi gauges into a new 64 dash bezel.(speedo,tach and a quad) The rims are vintage wheel woks v45. I then beadblasted the center portion. I also beadblasted most of the aluminum parts in the engine compartment. The car also has corvette discs all around. The engine is a 509 cadillac with parts from potter and maximum torque. Part include forged rods,keith black pistons,potters 2.19 valves with some port work on heads,potters shaft roller rockers along with one of his cams. Heavily modified sanderson headers Fabricated oil pan,094 crank,block and heads are studded,edelbrock intake,holley 870 street avenger,art carr 9.5",2200 stall convertor with a turbo 400. 12 boltwith 2.73 gears. Every nut and bolt was replaced with stainless bolts ect. It was a lot of work trying to fit the caddy engine in the 64 engine compartment. The 64 is very narrow between the upper a arms. I ended up going with a set of pole position a arms as the do no require shims for alignment. If I get a chance I will take some more pictures.
